Crepes at the WIE, hon!

Good news: Sofi's Crepes, the little creperie located near The Chuck, will be opening at a new "old" location -- the downstairs lunch counter of the historic Women's Industrial Exchange on Charles Street. Ann Costlow, the crepe lady, says: "We expect to open early fall. We are in the little space that used to be the Luncheonette counter. It's been closed for about 10 years. It looks like the 1950's, and we are trying to keep the feel. It is a very cool space, can't wait! We will be open Monday through Friday, 11 am to 4 pm." Sarah Moberg, executive director of the WIE, says the exchange is excited about Sofi's. Customers will be able to get their crepes from the entrance on Pleasant Street, eat them at the counter or at sidewalk tables. The exchange is also looking for a new restaurant for the main dining room, and hopes to land one before the year is out. The Women's Industrial Exchange is located at 333 North Charles.

Can't wait for them to open. I work downtown and having Sofi's open so close would definitely bring more life to the on going renaissance on Charles St.
